Nightshot questions?

[Erickl37]

I finally made it.

It can be done in manual mode. After a couple of try I finally had what I wanted
last night with a 1/1000 speed.

Now I guess that I'll have to practice more with that manual mode and read more about photography technique. I've usually try to make my setting with those auto-mode the camera have and it seems it is not alway the thing to do.


Thanks a lot for your help

I took a look at some of your shots and should point out that "copyright paranoia" displayed on shots on the web automatically labels the photographer as a newbie and not to be taken very seriously.

Season veterans realize that a copyright notice can easily be taken off a photo, so they satisfy themselves with a general notice on the page that all photos are subject to copyright etc.

Since everyone believes that they can take great digital photos themselves, there is certainly no reason to steal them. So don't worry so much about copyright. It is not necessary.

Yes I know that. It was not intend to show my pics or myself as a professional. I'm not.
I just play and practice with my camera for fun. For me it's just like a kind of hunting.
Maybe one day I'll have several thousands of bucks to put on professional equipment (and the experience to work with it).

The idea was just to give a little more work to peoples who make fake myspace profiles (or webpages) with other's photos.

Have a nice week

Well, unless your work is top quality and they are making money from copying it, how much does it really matter? One photographer uses another approach.If he finds this is happening, he emails them a standard form letter explaining that the photo on their site belongs to him and is subject to copyright...along with an invoice for X... dollars.

Still another approach to preventing this is to use odd photo sizes, low resolution, and other "sneaky" technical tricks to make them still look decent but be of very "limited" use in their current form.

Hope this gets you thinking about other methods.
